catching up

que miras caballero?

last weeks bluesky challenge...evil robots.

Japantown!

Japantown is an amazing place. The one in San Francisco fills me with joy when I visit. When I was back home in SF over the holidays I went by Kinokuniya to replenish my brush pens and to pick up some screentones. These things are a lot of fun! You might ask why not photoshop? Well when I open a sketchbook and I see screentones on an actual drawing or sketch...it blows my mind. It brings charm to the piece. Prehistoric photoshop if you will =]

Nos Vemos!

Turbo ZX

Introducing the It's-It 3 Door Turbo ZX. It's fully loaded with
dry ice coolers in the back, high end, anti fog, anti water
windows which explains why no windshield wipers are needed!
Let the cruise take control while you chill out to the
number one best seller..."dun din din din dun din din din"

Le Tomate-Mozzarella-Prosciutto

One of my favorite spots in the east village to grab french toast, eggs benedict, or a 'Tomate-Mozzarella-Prosciutto' sandwich, has also become a good spot to doodle. Check out the cup mat I doodled on while having dinner at Le Gamin...

...and a quick photoshop fix.

a superhero idea....just an idea...

trying too hard man. he can have tons of glitter all over his costume
and carry a fan around with him...just to blow his cape around.

Some sketches...with ink...

Happy Halloween!

rrrraaaaaahhhhhh!!!

Halloween!

We're doing monsters this week at the BlueSky challenge. Classic monsters....the Phantom of the opera by Basil Gogos was always a favorite. He's my inspiration for this.....those eyes and those teeth! Rad.

character line up

these are some characters i'm working on for a side project. a sweet modeler at work asked me if i was interested and i said "ppsshhh....yeah!" Anyways, I'll post more about it once the ball gets rollin'.

...and a close up of a few of the guys.

figure drawing!!!

johny, joe, and tony started up the figure drawing class here at blue sky...with the help of dice who's nice. thank their souls because it has been a while. figure drawing is probably the one and only practice that has helped my drawing by leaps and bounds.

some more....

some more...

wtf!?

my fifteen seconds of protest. whats going on with megatron?

a few things...

I was sitting in a cafe in Lake Tahoe and a friend suggested to draw a rooster with a pineapple and a gun...here's what i came up with.



Here are a few of the sketch challenges that go on at work. Our favorite Pixar character... I dug deep but the little kid on the trike in the incredibles almost made me pee.

Fairy Tales was the topic for the following week. There were soo many to choose from so I made my own. "The Blue Fairy and the Golden Nippled Troll." It's about a fairy who falls in love with a troll. Other than obvious reasons they get through the hurdles of society and live happily ever after......ah, fairy tales. I also put up a before and after...first a quick sketch and then I hit the finish button in photoshop.

he's lookin at you...

mega man...

tried making this outfit when i was ten.
